Is that for the spot ETFs, or their tokenized fund? Do you have a link for how spot ETFs are covered by stable coins?

How is it insecure? Schnorr signatures and the txID system literally make it quantum resistant. Even if you cracked a transaction’s key, you’d only have access to already spent funds. Like a receipt instead of a debit card, with no certainty who has the money until they spend it.
Oh, and in terms of computational waste, the fiat backed inflation based currency system we have now, has incentivized a world of endless growth which isn’t sustainable. Switching to an asset with finite supply like Bitcoin would remove those incentives. There’s other costs to using deflationary assets, but if you actually value the environment, switching to Bitcoin would economically inventivize a world where people are encouraged to save more instead of spend more
The recent crash was less volatile than previous crashes, and lasted half as long. There were also more factors than just the stable coin crash, there was also the FTX scandal, and silicon valley bank collapse which had ripple effects in the economy.
Still though, the resulting crash was half as long and not as severe as previous crashes.
I’m not saying you’re wrong about stable coins, but saying the entire crypto economy depends on that, while BlackRock has pushed the SEC to allow for Spot ETFs, is an exaggeration.
I’m not even going to say this is a morally good thing. I hate BlackRock because they are the mainstream/institution. But that level of support shouldnt be taken lightly
This is an emotionally charged post, yet everyone you disagree with is secretly trying to influence everyone else? How the fuck are you going to compare people who like a type of software to literal Nazis? Anyone who relies on emotional arguments like that is clearly not a rationalist.
How do you achieve communism without authoritarianism? This sub says they like decentralization, but if you decentralize based on computers, how do you stop adversaries from performing a Sybil attack? How do we establish command and control for a decentralized network, without letting authoritarians seize that command and control? How do you establish a decentralized identity system, without also establishing a decentralized system for data management and governance?
Now, should a Blockchain be that? Maybe not, I’m not trying sell whatever to you. I get being annoyed by all the advertisers, but to go an extra step to say that the principles of cypherpunk is something to compare to Nazis, is just proof you care more about emotional arguments and setting narrative.
That is a gross exaggeration. I don’t like tether either for the same reasons listed above but this is such a non nuanced response. We’ve seen price crashes from other stable coins eventual collapse, and other coins have still recovered to a market cap greater than the previous all time high. Your statement is literally, historically verified to be false
Ask anyone who talks shit about crypto for anything besides a meme, and you’ll still get a meme. That’s how their perception of it was established. They probably don’t know the difference between the internet and their web browser, let alone decentralized vs centralized, or all the many reasons why the economy has gone to shit the last few decades.
But they do know memes! The same two memes that have been told since Bitcoin was priced under $10k
Bitcoin has a market cap comparable to apple. It’s not going away anytime soon. You should do your own research and not let the mainstream media establish your perception. It’s not like the war on drugs, the war on terror, the war on crime, or the opioid/Xanax crisis were complete blunders by the media, right? But now, they’re opinions on a crypto asset that fundamentally threatens their status quo is not full of shit?
It’s Cypher punk, not Cyber punk. Ones a movie genre about swords and dystopian tech, ones a decentralized trustless protocol powered by encryption
I can add, podman was ignored in previous years at my day job because there were some reliability issues either with GPU access or networking I forget, however these issues have been resolved and we’re reimplementing it pretty much effortlessly
Ddg still has its issues, but it can be useful for avoiding some types of SEO targeting articles
Ruby was recommended to me by my comparative programming languages professor. I haven’t picked it up, but there were memes that this professor was so good at programming he was secretly built by the university in C++ to teach students how to write better code.
Gimme a wedge pillow to keep my ass above my head and I’m in
I don’t mind using discord, but I think it’s best to consolidate all project management communications on a single platform
Use cylinders instead of spheres?
RCS is like sms2.0, it supports better group chats, larger higher quality file transfers, read receipts… That sorta thing
I read the title with that connotation. Was actually looking forward to hearing a valid complaint of the steam deck but Surprise!
Doesn’t the production label make most of the money from sales anyways?and the artist makes more from live performances
IReal pro is an excellent app, there’s a built in forum for getting user uploads for the chord backing track of most any song. It’s mainly centered around jazz but there’s pop standards as well.
There’s a UI element you can press that lets you represent the chords in guitar tabs or as sheet music in a karaoke like display.
It’s certainly no replacement for playing with other musicians, but it is extremely useful for practicing
Because people who don’t live in the Levant caused these issues 80 years ago, and actively fund it today
Do you have any link supporting your assertion that BlackRock is only interested in Bitcoin because of stable coins. I genuinely would like to read the source
